2018 Programs

SHORT FUSE 2018

Brief Summary

We’ve once again lit the fuse to a powder keg of provocations with our annual celebration of short-subject horror of all stripes. Every horror hyphenate under the full moon is accounted for as the program weaves between supernatural frights and unnerving dread, proceeding from a gory apocalypse to a topical splatter comedy. All this plus the latest niche pastiche from the comedic Canucks that comprise ASTRON-6. You can expect your retinas to be painted with more than a few coats of red by the time the lights come up.

A newlywed woman finds herself encroached upon by a malaise of dread as her husband’s family expects her to participate in a series of disconcerting fertility rituals. Low-key horror that simmers and haunts.
